We’ve been saving money on electricity and supplies with this program over the past decade. There really isn’t a downside to using My Green Doctor as far as we’ve experienced. I’m grateful to the ACAAI for making this available to me as a member. My Green Doctor provides a great template for meetings and abundant resources for green projects. We have been able to create and move forward on many “green” projects thanks to My Green Doctor.
